Abstract

Enamine formation of substituted keto-dioxinones followed by thermolysis and cyclization-aromatization enables the synthesis of various 6-substituted-4-hydroxy-2-pyridinones in good yields. The functionalized keto-dioxinones were constructed via a diethylzinc mediated crossed Claisen condensation reaction.
